A private high school west of Montreal says it will act amid allegations administrators ignored complaints about racist bullying targeting two Black students
A private school west of Montreal is promising action after allegations that for years administrators ignored complaints about racist bullying targeting two Black students.
Joel DeBellefeuille, the founder of Montreal-based anti-racism group Red Coalition, says two teenage sisters who attend College Bourget in Rigaud, Que., have been called the N-word, spit on and had their hair pulled by other students. He says the family, which approached his organization with their concerns, has attempted to address the bullying with school administrators since the older girl started attending the school six years ago, but their complaints have been brushed off.
DeBellefeuille says the family doesn’t want to be identified because they fear the girls will be targeted by other students or staff members. Philippe Bertrand, College Bourget’s executive director, said in an emailed statement that the school plans to bring in an expert to help it ensure that students feel safe and accepted.
